Utah Shock Wave Therapy Protocol uses innovative acoustic wave energy to treat the surrounding spine muscles that are hyper sensitive, tender & painful. The pressure waves create increased blood flow and stimulate more blood vessels to help with healing. The outcome ? Decrease in muscle pain & aches, activate connective tissue in joints for better motion and improve blood flow.
"....we found ESWT to be more effective than TPI ( trigger point injections ) for pain relief....Compared to TPI, ESWT showed superior results for pain relief. Thus, we consider ESWT as an effective treatment for myofascial pain syndrome.... "
